THE CARS RECEPTION.

The Grand Pageant More q Duty Than
n Hearty Ovation.
LONDON, Nov. 19.-The general con-
census of opinion in political circles and
the various clubs seems to be that the re-
ception given the car of Russia in Ber-
lin was of a cold and formal nature, and
had no political significance whatever.
The extremely dangerous Illness of the
srown prince seems to cast a gloom over
the entire city, and the grand pageant to
which almost the entire city turned out,
seemed to impress the onlookers, more as
a duty than a hearty ovation. The pro-
tracted interview which the emperor Of
Russia held with the imperial German
chancellor is taken to mean that
the eldest son of the crown prince,
and eventually the heir to the throne, is
unwilling to hold an interview with the
Russian emperor. There is no doubt
that Bismarck was summoned to the
capital for the express purpose of dallying
with Alexander aud maintaing the in
tegrity of the recently signed triple alli-
ance. During the whole interview it is
stated the willy German chancellor simply
dealt in magnificent generalities.
